 As far as I can see, that will stay like this until the date is shifted
 in some way.

 Is there any way to parse an entire region/buffer for Org-mode dates and
 refresh their day of the week text?

Maybe you can try this (not heavily tested):

(defun my-update-day-name-in-inactive-time-stamps ()
  Update the abbreviate day name in inactive time-stamps.
  (interactive)
  (save-excursion
(goto-char (point-min))
(while (re-search-forward 
\\[\\([0-9]\\{4\\}-[0-9]\\{2\\}-[0-9]\\{2\\}\\)\\( [a-z]+\\)\\] 
nil t)
  (let* ((date (match-string 1))
 (day (format-time-string
   %a
   (apply 'encode-time 
  (save-match-data (org-parse-time-string date))
(replace-match (concat [ date   day ]) t t)

Thank you. It works a treat. It also has a potentially useful
side-effect, in that valid inactive time stamps like:

[2007-11-12 ]

are left untouched, which may well be what some people would want,
whereas if my search replace operations leave:

[2007-11-12 xxx]

then they will be updated. And if I want the former style stamps
updated, your code is clear enough that (even!) I can see how to adjust
it.

Thanks again.
